Crazy Frog is a Christmas Hot Seller
MODERN menace the Crazy Frog sits alongside traditional favourites such as Barbie in an experts' list of toys tipped to be bestsellers this Christmas.
As parents prepare to spend an estimated £2 billion on presents this festive season, the Toy Retailers Association (TRA) has named a dozen must-haves which are new on the shelves.
Some toys, such as the Monopoly Here and Now board- game, are updated versions of old favourites. But increasingly sophisticated technology is driving demand for electronic toys for all age groups, the TRA said.
Most parents dread a repeat of the shortages of Buzz Lightyear in 1995, when toys based on the animated hero were sold out almost everywhere.
The group's predictions are based on feedback from shoppers, children and the latest trends in new products.
Among the most expensive toys aimed at young boys is the £90 Roboraptor - an electronic dinosaur character which comes with its own selection of moods including "hungry", "docile" and "playful".
For girls, the Baby Annabell now boasts real tears and a price tag of £40 - double the cost of the latest Barbie.
The Crazy Frog, a £12 toy character based on the irritating ringtone, is likely to be a winner with younger children.
